Answer:

y=8/5x-11

Explanation:

first you find the gradient of the line:- y(of the first point)minus y(of the second point) divided by x(of the first point)minus x(of the second point)

-5-3=-8

0-5=-5 gradient=8/5

finding equation

8=y-3

5=x-5 then cross multiply you will get :-

5(y-3)=8(x-5)

5y-15=8x-40

5y=8x-40+15

5y=8x-25

5y=8x-25

5 5 5

y=8x-5

5
